The florist that I decided to go with runs a studio out of her home. Their name is Simply Stems. They are very professional and their work is amazing!!! My attitude is, if a florist is recommended to you by someone, they are definitely worth checking out.

I met with Simply Stems (they work out of one of the owner's home) and thought they were more professional than many of the other florists I met.

Their work was beautiful, their prices were great, and I would've totally used them if I hadn't fallen in love with Flower Michele.

If you've heard good reviews, definitely check them out!

I'm using an out of house florist that my family & friends have used for years....if you know they're reputable, it's the way to go. They usually pay more attention to every detail since they're private, and there's no overhead charges so the price is SO much cheaper!!! My florist is amazing...I couldn't be happier with my choice :)

I'm using an out of her house florist - Nancy from Open House Country. I met with a dozen florists and decided that Nancy was the best fit for me. I have no quams whatsoever about using an 'out of her house' florist.

In fact, one othe highly recommended florist on this site (in addition to Simply Stems) works out of her house - Laurie from LA Blossom.

Flowersy by Rosemarie is my aunt!
She did my flowers, my sisters flowers and all the rest of our family!
She does an amazing job! She works with her daughter and my mother! She's been working out of her home for many many years. She used to work out of the basement, but has upgraded to a workshop in the back of her home in a seperate building. She's got much more room and refrigeration back there.

I definately recommend it, as long as you see their work and have a recomendation and a contract! Usually the florist will spend more time and care a bit more about your flowers!

I'm using Designs by Rose - which is a mother/daughter business from their home - I highly recommend them thus far.

Just ask if they are insured! Most hall's require the florist to send in insurance papers before they deliver.

My aunt is insured and she is out of her home!
